    This album is pretty bad... Katy is so out of touch with reality and trends. She is stuck in 2010 yet lacks that pop she had during OOTB and TD era. I had some expectations for this album and tried to enjoy it but I just couldn't....

    Katy nunca hizo canciones brillantes, pero sí pegajosas y con letra interesante, ahora no destaca en nada, su voz sigue siendo mala y la producción del disco es plana y pobre. No es una decepción porque francamente se veía venir

    Solo 2 canciones son rescatables, el resto a pesar de una excelente letra no genera esa emoción que sus trabajos anteriores, sin duda Katy perdió la chispa que la caracterizaba :( una lástima que haya perdido el rumbo y no haya sabido evolucionar

    Lo que sucede con Katy Perry es que no se arriesga, no trata de innovar, letras y sonidos repetitivos, pareciera un álbum de una cantante joven que apenas va a debutar en la industria musical. Dos o tres canciones salvan el álbum.

    Katy perry nunca teve qualidade mesmo, não é atoa que a discografia inteira é amarelada, além disso não tem prêmios relevantes e nem muito talento, ainda bem que ela percebeu isso e foi apostar na vida familiar. A coitada só tinha os charts pra se orgulhar e hoje em dia nem debuta mais, eu tenho dó dos fãs que ficam passando vergonha no twitter tentando defender essa bomba

    Katy tries to look fresh after her latest failure called witness but it just seems to be a desperate attempt as only a couple of songs are worth listening to. It's a shame to hear such mediocre work, poorly produced and written by someone like Katy Perry. From Katy Perry we expected two things and one did not like her demanding audience at all. Bad for Katy and her team.

    Childish and superfluous. Katy tries to bring back fans with her old “comic/campy” -rather childish- aesthetic and mixes it with “deep” “retrospective” lyrics that are simply regular, reminding us of lack her of talent but incuestionable beauty...

    Without fleeting moments of bad taste, Perry does indeed sound mature, but she's also not quite as fun. That's a conscious choice, though. Smile is intended to evoke memories of her frivolous younger days while pointing toward a sustainable pop future.

    While Perry finds the occasional moment of quality here (Smile and Tucked both feel like the best possible music we could get from Katy Perry in 2020), Smile is an album searching for an identity—and when it fails, it falls back on lazy writing.
  3. Aug 31, 2020

    Like Joanne before Chromatica, Smile plays like a necessary centering exercise, indulging her insecurities and less surefire instincts. If Witness was overdetermined, Smile is an earnest exhale, for better or for worse. It delivers an image of her journey towards inner peace that is honest (if corny) and catchy (if not exactly inventive).
